FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What material are the Valentino Rossi VR46 gloves made from?
The VR46 gloves feature 0.8–0.9 mm cowhide leather race-grade construction. This thickness and material grade deliver the abrasion and tear resistance required for MotoGP track riding. Cowhide leather at this thickness provides a balance of impact protection and dexterity—critical when you're managing throttle control and braking inputs at race speeds. The leather is hand-stitched using high-strength nylon thread, matching the construction standard of factory Yamaha MotoGP race suits. For riders seeking enhanced grip and lighter weight, a kangaroo leather upgrade is available as a made-to-measure option.
How does the carbon-reinforced metal knuckle protector work?
The carbon-reinforced metal knuckle protector is engineered to absorb and distribute impact energy across the knuckle zone—the primary contact point during a high-side or low-side crash. The metal core provides rigid impact resistance, while the carbon reinforcement adds lightweight structural strength. The protector is paired with rubber protection featuring air intakes and an exhaust port; the air intakes allow cooling airflow during extended track sessions, while the exhaust port prevents heat and moisture buildup inside the glove. This dual-layer approach protects your hands from abrasion and impact while maintaining grip comfort and throttle response during long races.
Can I order a custom fit for the VR46 gloves?
Yes. Made-to-measure custom sizing is available for the VR46 gloves. Select Custom Size from the product options Size, complete the checkout process. Submit your body measurements via the measurement form using your order number; gloves ship in 4–6 weeks from spec confirmation. Custom fit ensures the pre-curved palm and fingers align perfectly with your hand geometry, maximizing grip control and minimizing pressure points during long track sessions. Standard sizes (XS to 3XL) ship in 10–15 working days. For made-to-measure orders, we also offer a leather upgrade option: choose between standard Cowhide, Monaco, or Kangaroo leather to match your protection and feel preferences.
What is the difference between TPU sliders and rubber protection in these racing gloves?
TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) sliders and rubber protection serve different functions in the VR46 gloves. TPU sliders are mounted on the palm, thumb, and fingers on poly-foam backing; they provide localized impact resistance and abrasion protection at high-friction zones during a slide. The poly-foam base distributes impact force across a wider area, reducing peak stress on the leather underneath. Rubber protection, by contrast, covers larger zones (knuckles, back of hand) and is engineered for broader impact absorption. The rubber protection on the VR46 includes air intakes and an exhaust port for thermal management. Together, TPU sliders handle palm-grip durability while rubber protection handles knuckle and back-hand impact—a layered defense strategy proven on MotoGP grids.
How long does it take to receive the VR46 gloves after ordering?
Standard size orders (XS to 3XL) ship in 10–15 working days from order confirmation. Made-to-measure / custom-size orders ship in 4–6 weeks from spec confirmation—that is, from the moment we receive your body measurements via the measurement form. All orders are hand-stitched made-to-order; there is no stock. The Leather Collection ships to 50+ countries. For specific delivery timelines to your location, check our shipping & delivery page.
